      Add Condition.outcome as an extension.

      Value set: death, disability, full recovery

      Add a usage note that "Cause of death" for a patient is typically captured as an Observation. Also note that "outcome" doesn't imply causality. Some outcomes may not be assessable until the condition.clinicalStatus is no longer active.

      Proposed Wording: Add cause of death

      Comment:

      Either (or both)

      • add cause of death on the patient resource (allowing for multiple values), or
      • add outcome (death) on the condition- similar to the outcome on the FamilyHistory condition
